Under the server properties>> connections tab. I have an option "max
concurrent user connections set to 0"
Can some one plase tell me what is this for? and what should i set it to?
This is a shared server with 150 databases belonging to different domains,
and is excessible from the internet.
Also is there a way to limit the amount of data transfered per database?

Thank you

That option is just what it states. It will limit the server to x many
concurrent connections. A setting of 0 means infinite or no limit and should
probably not be touched. No there is no way in SQL Server to limit the
amount of data transferred.

None that I know of from a db by db standpoint. There is a feature in
Win2003 called WSRM that you may want to look at. It allows you to set
limits on CPU, Memory consumption etc. for an application but not for
individual users or dbs within a single SQL Server app.
